Although events such as accidental and over-consumption of edible marijuana products are an emerging concern, no CDC syndrome definition currently exists for marijuana-related visits. We developed and evaluated a marijuana syndrome definition using data from 15 hospitals in Adams, Arapahoe, Denver, and Douglas counties reporting to NSSP.</p> ER -
